Etymology
The word 'morn' originates from Old English 'morgen', which is derived from Germanic roots. Over time, it has evolved in both form and use. The term was historically used in literature and poetry to convey the beauty and tranquility of the early part of the day, often personifying dawn as a female figure. In modern usage, 'morn' is less common and mostly found in poetic contexts, while 'morning' has taken precedence in everyday language. The shift reflects a broader trend in the English language towards simplifying and modernizing vocabulary while retaining certain archaic terms for artistic expression. The use of 'morn' in literature by poets like William Wordsworth and John Keats has helped preserve its charm and evocative quality, even as the everyday vernacular progresses.
